Describing engineering documents with faceted approaches

Abstract: Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to highlight the difficulty of applying faceted classification outside of library contexts and also to indicate that faceted approaches are poorly expressed to non-experts. Design/methodology/approach -The faceted approach is being applied outside of its "home" community, with mixed results. The approach is based in part on examination of a broad base of literature and in part on results and reflections on a case study applying faceted notions to "real world" engineering d… Show more

“…Even art viewed by many as serving a pure and aesthetic purpose can serve financial (investment), informational (propaganda), entertainment or nationalistic purposes. We therefore need to acknowledge viewpoint dependency in the functional and non-functional purposes ascribed to artefacts [11,77].…”

“…La difficulté de la méthodologie ascendante pour notre outil provient de plusieurs facteurs. Les méthodologies proposées par Vickery (1960), Spiteri (1998) et Denton (2003) sont considérées comme évaluatives plutôt que génératives par Wild et al (2009). D'autres auteurs (Hudon et Mustafa El Hadi, 2010) pointent également le manque de guide méthodologique pour identifier les facettes pertinentes.…”

“…Un dernier problème abordé par Wild et al (2009), est la question de la démarche de construction des facettes purement descendante ou ascendante (top down versus bottom up). Cette interrogation revient à se demander si l'on doit construire le schéma à partir des connaissances et catégories préexistantes sur un domaine (démarche descendante), ou à partir de l'étude d'un corpus de document (démarche ascendante).…”
